I don’t know. I love their accent though, at least what I imagine a cowboy should sound like. The heavy drawl, the fitted jeans, the horse…. But that is not the point of today’s blog, the point is so much is going on. George Clooney was arrested, I got married (the first of three), I found an amazing boutique hotel in Oslo, Kali Dining is going superbly well (if you haven’t booked your dinner yet -DO!), I am about to plan a bachelorette party (Good Lord) and my gym instructor completed Iron Man with all of her toes broken.
I have much to write and heaps to tell, but for now I wanted to say remember to cream up. Yes, it’s dry outside no matter where you are (well at least if you are in Norway or California) so make sure your skin is hydrated! A good option are the body butter’s from The Body Shop. These thick and glorious these creams truly replenish your famished skin. The coconut one is my personal fave, I have to refrain from smelling myself too much in public (at home I couldn’t give a damn). I am obsessed with keeping hydrated – our body needs water to survive. I even managed to make my father drink six glasses of water a day whilst at home. He has never and I mean NEVER drunk a glass of water. He hates it. Six may have been a bit much as he spent much of his time peeing. My father, however, has never had to stop the car to pee, go into a cafe to pee or ever make any pee stop what so ever… as an active peer I believe it is about time he pees a little.
Before I love you and leave you – Happy Friday. (Is it me or did this week not even exist? It went far too fast.)
There is so much going on in LA this weekend with it being St. Patricks, The Los Angeles Marathon but seeing as it is going to rain I suggest (what I feel like doing more like…)
A trip to the LACMA – In Wonderland: The Surrealist Adventures of Women Artists in Mexico and the United States – Dinner at Terroni afterwards is a must.
A wet and wild adventure with Poseidon Stand-Up Paddle Board - Get a Lesson in Paddle Boarding with your friends (who cares if it’s raining – it adds to the fun) go halt the pending cold with a few beers at the Venice Ale House afterwards.
Un peu de Pamper – So the weather report says rain. Boo. What better excuse to go and beautify yourself. First stop, get those gorgeous brows with Kelly Baker at Kelley Baker Brows on Abbot Kinney. She is the best. Full-stop. Buy her lip-gloss too, as Kelley says, It’s all about the Brows and Lips.
Get Cut – give Angela Garcia at Euphoria Salon on Abbot Kinney a call. She will do your locks better than Goldy every could. (Bottom line – she is the best).
Prepare your body for the week to come at Odacite Garden Spa - Again when it rains, it pours so just give in completely and treat yourself to a massage at the wondrous Odacite Garden Spa (behind the Detox Market on Abbot Kinney).
Go to the Pictures – This is a Cinema weekend (I know it is St. Patty’s but have a beer pre and post movie) because this Sunday BARAKA is showing at the Egyptian Theatre and if you haven’t seen this visual masterpiece, please do.
Also – There will be a Malcolm McDowell Tribute this weekend at the Egyptian Theatre and you can come along to witness McDowell being honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Friday, March 16th at 11:30 am outside of the Pig ‘N Whistle!
Who has seen the Artist? I hope to finally see it this weekend! Will let you know my thoughts on it…pictures of the 1st wedding, an Oslo low down and much more to come…soon. To a screen near you.
